Ingredient Decoder

Moderate Caution

Yellow 5 (Tartrazine)

A synthetic lemon-yellow azo dye derived from coal tar. It is known to cause allergic reactions (like hives) in people with aspirin intolerance and has been linked to behavioral changes in children.

Yellow 6 (Sunset Yellow)

A synthetic food dye used in cheese, candy, and soda. Some animal studies have linked it to adrenal tumors, though the FDA currently deems it safe for consumption.

BHT (Butylated Hydroxytoluene)

Often paired with BHA in cereals and snacks. While safer than BHA, studies suggest it may disrupt hormones (endocrine disruptor) and impact thyroid health.

Sodium Phosphate

Used in processed meats and cheese to maintain moisture. High intake is dangerous for people with kidney issues and can weaken bones by leaching calcium.

⚠️ Moderate Caution

While free from the most dangerous additives, we detected Yellow 5 (Tartrazine). A synthetic lemon-yellow azo dye derived from coal tar.

It is generally safe in small amounts but worth noting for sensitive diets.

Final Verdict

Taking into account the macro-nutrient balance, additive risks, and caloric density, Life Multigrain cereal chocolate achieves a CakeID Score of 60/100.

Consume in Moderation: It's not a health hazard, but it shouldn't be a staple in your daily diet due to its processing level or nutritional density.
